Quite normal, don't worry too much, but don't stop looking for them... Soon you'll be working hard.

I've never seen a benefit of a Master's, unless the company you work for has a policy of "can't be promoted to management without a Master's," then I feel it is a waste of time / money.

That's why you then continue to PhD. :) Associate's = Windows ME Bachelor's = Windows XP Master's = Windows Vista PhD = Windows 7

Associate's = Windows ME Bachelor's = Windows XP Master's = Windows Vista PhD = Windows 7 I wish. I'd be a God.

Don't push the rush.

Dirk Higbee

Yes, yes, but believe it or not I really like XHTML.

Don't push the rush.

Dirk Higbee

I'm working on it. However, the government is throwing up a roadblock, they have cut subsidies for school's again and school's are raising their prices to compensate so I have to dig up a bunch of fundage.

Don't push the rush.

Do what you have to do. We all had to do... interesting things... to get through and pay for college.

Lol. Yes, it has been quite "interesting" so far.

Don't push the rush.

Could be worse. When I graduated one of the skills I was taught was ADA. But with enough Long Islands I believe I have either reset or killed the offended brain cells.

Great :thumbsup:

By the time I graduated, I knew LISP, Java, MIPS assembly, and Alice. I too have used :beer: to kill of those useless brain cells.

It's true. I sold my blood plasma to get the money to put some sort of deposit down before I could live in the dorms at my college.

Congrats! Keep in mind that you haven't finished (learning), you have just started.
